Research Interests

My expertise is in urban ecology and evolution in indoor urban pests. I currently use bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) as a model organism to study parasite-host relationships at multiple geographic scales. As a species with a close-association to us—humans—they provide a unique opportunity to study how host organisms impact parasite ecology and evolution with an applied importance to human health and well-being. I’m completing my Ph.D. in the Booth Lab and currently looking for a post-doc or industry position in Computational Genetics or related fields.
